Dit is wat ik gevonden heb over EINN:

Shannon airport has been closed until at least 3pm following an incident earlier today involving an Aer Lingus regional aircraft. The aircraft, operated by Aer Arann was on its way from Manchester with 21 passsengers and four crew when it developed a problem with its nosewheel on landing.
The passengers and crew disembarked safely and it is understood no one was injured.
However an investigation is underway and the runway has been closed because of the incident.
The Air Accident Investigation Unit attached to the Department of Transport will be conducting an investigation into what occurred. Shannon airport will remain closed until at least 3pm and flights will be delayed or diverted until then.
An Aer Lingus flight due in to Shannon from London Heathrow has been diverted to Cork.
Three US bound flights - an Aer Lingus service to JFK in New York, a Delta flight to Newark, and an Omni Air flight also due to travel to the US, have been delayed.
